OTL Map Thread Mk IV., 2014-

anyone out who could fill in Antarctica's topography for this Map?
topo-png.522114

This map is very old, yet Antarctica remains blank.

I mean there's anothr a that does show antarctica's topography, but the format and rojection are different, secifically in the Wolrd-M format.
It shouldn't be so hard.

Florida not being alligators is baffling to me

But on the other hand I can totally see the headline “Florida man dies after trying to eat entire nest of fire ants”

Maybe because people in Florida might expect alligators to be dangerous but non-venomous insects to be less so. And the map says that it depicts death couses above the national average. Maybe there are numerous deaths by alligator in Florida but Missouri and Illinois raise the median so much that Florida just happens to be below the average, who knows? (well, apparently the map makers would know)

next map rather unrelated:

A question, I am trying to find a detailed map of all administrative divisions of Apartheid South Africa, but I was unable to find them (only for South West Africa/Namibia), so for my large map I am simply using modern-day subdivisions but with only the four provinces highlighted as first-level divisions.

However, is this electoral map showing the second-level administrative subdivisions of Apartheid South Africa, or is it just an electoral map? do not even get start with trying to find maps of the internal subdivisions of the Bantustans, these seem to be the hardest of them all to find

(Probably) the best Iranian linguistic map on the internet. Even as a person who is highly interested in the country, I never knew here were so many ethnicities in Iran.

I never knew the north east and isolated areas near Pakistan were Kurdish. What is somali doing in Iran? im scared now tbh

The reason that there are Kurdish areas up there is because they were deported: in the early-to-mid 1500s, Esmail I and Tahmasp I, of the Safavid dynasty, transported hundreds of Kurds to Khorasan. There are now about 1 million of them in a total population of 83 million.

As for the Somalis...I couldn't find anything about them.

A large Geological Map of Iran made in the 1950s...there's a 3D version of it somewhere in the world, but you can't find it anywhere. It's incredibly detailed, but, unfortunately, due to the image size limit, you can't see all of it.

Afghanistan is no longer designated as an ally.
That depends. The U.S. does not recognize the Taliban government. So in essence, the "Islamic Republic of Afghanistan" is still recognized as an ally, not the Islamic Emirate.

Also not in the list is Saudi Arabia which is an ally and partner but has not been designated as a MNNA.

CNN disagrees.
